We are truly sorry to hear about your mother's health struggles and the challenges your family is facing. In times like these, it's crucial to remember that God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1 WEB.
Firstly, we want to lift up your mother's health situation to the Lord. It's important to remember that healing and comfort come from Him, and it is only In Jesus Name (IJN) that we are saved. In fact, it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Therefore, God may be glorified in the Son. Acts 4:12 WEB, John 14:13 WEB. Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear mother who is not feeling well. You know her every need, every pain, and every worry. Please, Lord, put Your healing hand upon her and give her strength. Guide the doctors and those who are caring for her, and help us, her children, to make wise decisions for her care. We ask for Your peace to fill her heart and mind, and we trust in Your goodness and faithfulness. We also ask for wisdom and strength for us, her children, as we care for her in these challenging times. We ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Regarding your mother's health, it's essential to consult with her doctors to understand the underlying causes of her symptoms. It could be helpful to monitor her blood pressure regularly and keep a record to discuss with her healthcare providers. Also, ensure that her medication is being administered correctly and consistently. If there are any concerns about her memory or cognitive functions, it's important to address these with her doctors as well.
In regards to caretaking, it's understandable that you and your brother are concerned about the practical aspects. It's commendable that you have found someone to help care for her. Make sure that this person is qualified and trustworthy. Perhaps consider having a professional caregiver or nurse visit her regularly to ensure she is taking her medications properly and to monitor her health.
Remember, the Lord encourages us to bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2 WEB. Caring for a parent can be challenging, but it's also an opportunity to show love and honor. However, it's equally important to ensure that you and your brother are not overwhelmed. It's good to seek help when needed, and it's wise of you to be concerned about your brother's job and well-being.
Lastly, consider the words of the Apostle Paul: Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB. Cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 WEB.
Trust that God will guide you and your family through this difficult time. He is always with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you Deuteronomy 31:6, Hebrews 13:5 WEB.
